Joined this site a couple weeks ago and picked up my S2000 this past Monday. I live in Chicago and picked the car up in Idaho and driving it back home. It's been a great experience so far driving through the mountains.
2004 S2000
Clock just hit 80k miles by me
Clean title / No crash
Owner was a retired veteran who couldn't get in/out of the vehicle anymore. Got an inspection at a local Honda dealer and they said it's one of the cleanest cars they had seen.
Soft top could use a replacement, but the price offered was what drove me to Idaho to buy this.

Cheers

Picked up a 2000 S2k with 87,500 miles, sebring silver. You could eat off the engine its so clean. Only mod it came with is the A'PEXi WS2 exhaust. Other mods in the planning stage: upgrade to the AP2 front bumper and lip, AP2 interior door panels so I can upgrade the speakers for overall better sound, 20th anniversary foot well lights, and upgrade to 17" wheels. Not sure I will stick to OEM on the wheels, but would like to retain as much OEM as possible. I did already upgrade the radio, just still can't figure out how to get the factory controls to work with the Metra adapter yet.

I was seriously looking/considering the latest ND Miata, but that tablet on the dash just kills me (I just understand this "trend" in cars today...). The S2000 was my first choice anyway, and I happened to find mine three weeks ago. That 9k rev limit paired with the beautiful 6 speed is simply pure awesomeness.

Hi, I’m late for introducing my self. Of course I’m a slow guy.
I live in Taiwan and wanted to own a S2000 during 1999, before it was launched.
Finally picked up my 2006 silverstone S2K with 23000 miles odometer from US market during 2010...yes! 11 years later.
After driving it in stock spec, I decided to make some mods for it recently, yes! 10 years/50000 miles later.

Purchased my 1999 S2000 in April this year. 60k miles, red with black interior. 100% original as it left factory, with good service records from new. Very clean with only a few tiny stone chips on nose to clean up. Absolutely fabulous to drive. Took 18 months to find the right car ... had to be RED ! Slowly getting through all fluids and maintenance items to bring everything up to scratch, using original OEM filters and parts. Honda MTF and diff oil, engine oil - Castrol Edge Racing 5-30. Had to replace a weeping clutch slave cylinder, which was an easy job. So far everything else seems fine. Did a valve clearance check which was all good and compression test also perfect. Looking forward many years of enjoyable ownership ...

Hi B... as you may have noticed I am in Australia and my S2K is right had drive! Only about 1800 made it to Australia between '99 and '09 and most are Black or Silver, being the most popular colour at the time. I sold a Red Ferrari 308 GTSQV a couple of years ago, so this is my new toy.... and it had to be Red. The Ferrari was fabulous to look at, but S2K is a much nicer car to drive than the Ferrari ever was and cost about 10% of what the 308 sold for ! Thanks for saying Hi ... Peter

Hi,
I'm likely one of the few original owners still here.
Thought I'd check in, as the last time I logged in was 3-years ago, and recently got an email with updates from the forum... hadn't seen one in years.

Pic of my '05 AP2 and friends Holden homage - beautiful November day to drive our cars before putting them away for the winter.
